The Gigabit City project launched in 2013 with CityFibre committing to connect UK businesses with Internet speeds of up to 1000Mbps. Other cities in the expansion include Milton Keynes, Glasgow, Leeds and Reading.

CityFibre commercial director Rob Hamlin (pictured) said: “The Thames Valley is an economic powerhouse and it is important that this growing region has the best connectivity possible to enable it to remain competitive on a global stage. This is what we aim to provide here at CityFibre, transformational infrastructure to boost local business.”

“We are now able to offer local businesses next-generation internet services at highly competitive prices that will turbocharge their capabilities and give them a huge head-start over the competition,” added BtL managing director Rob Lamden.
